• If the dishwasher door will not close properly,

check that the appliance stands rmly on the
oor, if not, adjust using the adjustable legs.

Water supply connection

Make sure that domestic water supply system is
suitable for the dishwasher. It is recommended

to install a lter in the water supply line to avoid

damage to the appliance due to impurities (such
as sand, clay, rust, etc.) that occasionally occur in
water. This will also prevent accumulation of sedi­ment after dishwashing.

Water supply hose

Do not use the water supply hose from the old
dishwasher. Use the new water supply hose
provided with the appliance. Before connecting,
rinse the hose with water. Connect the water sup­ply hose directly to the
water feed valve. The
domestic water system
pressure should be at
least 0.03 MPa and up
to 1 MPa. If the water
pressure exceeds 1
MPa, install pressure
reducing valve.

PREPARE THE APPLIANCE FOR OPERATION

Before rst use

• Before using the appliance, verify
that the data given on the rating plate
matches that of local power outlets.

• Remove all packing materials from
inside of the appliance.

• Prepare special salt (water softener).

• Add 2 kg special salt (intended for
dishwashers) to the salt dispenser and

ll it with water to the brim.

• Pour into the rinse aid dispenser.

The importance of water descaling

A dishwasher requires soft water (with

low calcium content) to operate efciently.

Otherwise, white residue main remain on
the dishes and inside the appliance. This
has a negative impact on the quality of
dishwashing, rinsing and drying. When

the water ows through the softener, ions

responsible for the water hardness are
removed, and the water becomes soft, for
best dishwashing results. Depending on
the degree of water hardness, the ions
responsible for water hardness accumulate
quickly inside the water softener. There­fore, the water softener must be regener-

ated to operate with the same efciency

during the next wash. This is why special
salt is used in the dishwasher.

Add special salt

Only use special salt intended for dishwashers. To

add special salt you must rst remove the lower

basket and then open the lid of the salt dispenser
by turning it counter clockwise - (1). Fill the special
salt dispenser (~ 1.5 kg of special salt) and water

(2) using the supplied funnel (2). Replace and
close the lid. If the salt indicator on the control

panel lights up, rell the special salt dispenser.

Use only the special salt intended for
dishwashers.

Fill the salt container with water only before

rst use.

Do not add kitchen salt to the dishwasher. The salt
dispenser can degrade over time. When you start

a programme special salt dispenser is lled with

water. Therefore, you should pour the special salt
before starting the dishwasher.
Special salt will be washed away during the
dishwashing programme. If you pour the special
salt and do not intend to run a dishwashing pro­gramme, run the quick programme with an empty
dishwasher in order to prevent corrosion.

The test strip

The dishwashing effectiveness is linked to water hardness. Therefore, the appliance is equipped
with a system to reduce the hardness of the water supply. The dishwashing effectiveness is
improved when the system is set correctly. To check water hardness contact the municipal water
company or determined the water hardness using test strip (if available).

Fill the detergent dispenser

Press latch to open the detergent dispenser, as

shown in gure. (1) The detergent dispenser

features volume marking. Using these markings
(lines) you can measure the correct amount of
detergent. The dispenser can accommodate a
maximum of 30g of detergent.
Open the pack with dishwasher detergent and
in the case of heavily soiled dishes pour 25 cm³
detergent into the main wash compartment (b) or
15 cm³ for less soiled dishes. (2) If the dishes re­mained unwashed for an extended period of time
or if food has dried, pour 5 cm³ detergent (a) into
the pre-wash compartment and start the dishwash­er. Depending on the amount of soil and the water
hardness you may need to add more detergent.

the programme with a higher wash temperature.

Generally, using multi-component detergents
suitable results are obtained only under certain
conditions. Such detergents contain rinse aid and/
or special salt in a specic amount. It is recom­mended to use special salt when using multi­component tablets.

What you should pay attention to when using
these tablets.

• Always check the type of detergent used and
whether it is a multi-component product.

• Make sure that the detergent used is appropri­ate for tap water hardness.

• Follow the instructions on the product packag­ing.

• If the detergent is in the form of tablets, never
place it the cutlery basket. Always place the
tablet in the detergent dispenser compartment.

• The use of these detergents yields good
results only in certain applications. Using
this type of detergent you should contact the
manufacturer for information about proper use.

• If you use the detergent properly and dish­washer settings are correct you can save on
salt and/or rinse aid.

• If dishwashing results while using 2-in-1 or
3-in-1 detergents are not satisfactory (traces of
lime scale on the dishes), please contact the
detergent manufacturer. The warranty does
not cover complaints due to the use of multi­component detergents.

Multi-component (multitab) detergents (eg.
2-in-1, 3-in-1, etc.)

There are three types of detergents:

1. Containing phosphates and chlorine,

2. Containing phosphates and no chlorine,

3. Containing no phosphates and no chlorine.
The latest tablets are generally phosphate-free.
Since phosphates have water softening proper­ties, we recommend adding salt to the container
even if the water hardness is only 6°dH. If you use
phosphate-free detergent where water is hard,
white residue may be visible on the dishes. You
can prevent this by increasing the amount of deter­gent. Chlorine-free detergents have less bleaching
effect. Stains may not be entirely removed. Select

Recommended use: For best results using
multi-component cleaning agents, add
special salt and rinse aid in the dishwasher
and set the water hardness and amount of
rinse aid to the lowest setting.

The solubility of the detergent tablets made
by different manufacturers can vary with
regard to temperature and time. It is there­fore not recommended to use detergent
tablets in quick programmes. It is recom­mended to use powder detergents in quick
programmes.

Always store detergents in a dry, cool
place, out of reach of children. Add deter­gent to the dispenser immediately before
using the appliance.
Warning: If encounter another problem
when using a multi-component detergent,
please contact the detergent manufacturer.

12

PREPARE THE APPLIANCE FOR OPERATION

Stop using multi-component detergents

• Add special salt and rinse aid to dispensers.

• Set the water hardness to the highest level (6)
and run an empty dishwasher.

• Adjust the water hardness.

• Adjust rinse aid setting.

Add rinse aid to the dispenser and adjust set­ting

Use rinse aid to prevent the formation of white
water drops, lime scale spots, white streaks that
may occur on the dishes, as well as to improve
the drying process. Contrary to popular belief, it
not only serves to obtain a shiny dishes, but also
to facilitate drying. For this reason, make sure

there is always sufcient amount of rinse aid in the

dispenser.
If the rinse aid indicator on the control panel lights
up, add rinse aid to the dispenser.
To add rinse aid remove the dispenser lid by
unscrewing it (1). Add rinse aid until the level indi­cator becomes dark. (4) Replace the lid and turn
it until markings align. Use rinse aid level indicator

to make sure the level is sufcient. Dark colour (4)
indicates sufcient rinse aid level in the dispenser,

and the light colour (4) indicates you need to add
rinse aid to the dispenser.
You can adjust rinse aid dosage from 1 to 6. The
factory setting for the rinse aid is 4. Adjust to a
higher dose if streaks remain on the dishes after
drying or to a lower dose if blue residue collets on
the dishes.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Regular dishwasher cleaning can extend its life­time of trouble-free operation.

Grease and limescale can accumulate in dish­washer chamber. In the event of such accumula­tion

- Add detergent and do not load any dishes. Select
a high temperature washing programme and start
the dishwasher. If the result is not satisfactory, use
a special cleaner available on the market. (Clean-

ers manufactured specically for dishwashers).

Clean the dishwasher door seal

To remove any accumulated residue from the door
seals, wipe the seals regularly with a damp cloth.

Clean the dishwasher

Clean the spray arms and lters at least once a

week. Before cleaning unplug the dishwasher from
wall outlet and close the water supply valve. Do
not use harsh or abrasive materials when clean­ing. Wash with a mild cleaning agent and a damp
cloth.

Filters

Check if food residue
has accumulated on the

strainer and ne lter. If
so, remove the lters and

clean them thoroughly
under running water.

1. Main lter

2. Strainer

3. Fine lter

1. Remove the lower basket.

2. Turn the strainer counter-clockwise and pull it
up.

3. Remove the lter assembly.

4. Remove the ne lter from the strainer

5. Thoroughly clean the lters under running

water. Use a brush if necessary.

6. Install the lters in reverse order.

7. Insert the lter assembly into the chamber and

then turn clockwise.

• Never use the dishwasher without the

lter assembly.

• Improper mounting of the lters reduces

the dishwashing effectiveness.

• Clean lters are key to correct dishwash­er operation.

Cleaning the door lock

After each use wipe the door lock and around with
a cloth soaked with mild detergent and wipe dry.

Do not ood the lock with water. Do not use any

aerosol cleaners. They may damage the lock and
electric components inside.

Spray arms

Make sure that jet nozzles the upper and lower
spray arm are not clogged. If jet nozzles are
clogged, remove the spray arms and clean them
under running water.
Remove the lower spray arm by pulling it upwards,
while the upper arm is removed by turning the nut
counter-clockwise.
When mounting the spray arm make sure that the
nut is well tightened.

Water supply hose lter

The water is ltered by the lter in the water supply

line to avoid damage to the appliance due to impu­rities (such as sand, clay, rust, etc.) that occasion­ally occur in water. This will also prevent accumu­lation of sediment after dishwashing. Periodically

inspect the lter and hose and clean if necessary.
To clear the lter, close the water supply valve,
then remove the hose. Remove the lter from the

hose and clean it under running water. Replace

the clean lter inside the hose. Install the hose.
